More demands of the driver to balance the throttle inputs More demands of the driver to find and utilize available grip because of a major reduction in the coefficient of friction which negatively affects the mechanical grip More demands of the driver to find optimal braking inputs Why do you think Sir Lewis is the best rain driver in the current field? He put his stamp on that accolade in his first season in Fuji 2007 and performed at an amazingly high level, but for one race, since that time. His best Opus was Turkey 2020. No one was close and all of the pundits who laid wreaths at the False Driving God, Verstappen, on Sunday were proven spectacularly wrong on Sunday. Like you, I can't wait for the season to start. My top storyline is Verstappen vs. Perez: Will Verstappen finally prove himself?

Not only Verstappen vs Perez
Leclerc versus Sainz and how good is the Ferrari this year? Ricciardo for steady podiums Yoki versus Gasly Can Bottas keep p2 this year or overdrive it and make mistakes? Can Vettel do something special this year Can Russel and the improved Williams steel some points and see more of him,would be nice. |

There is an interesting article with quotes from Russel on the 2021 Williams.
Apparently they have gone for a highly wind sensitive design that should perform very well at some tracks and poorly at others...depends on the weather and the track one assumes. The idea being to get a few good results and score points at the expense of rubbish results at the rest. |

You forgot? Surely you did not. Whoever scores more points between the two, not counting DNF due to no fault of Driver. $100 to charity of choice of winner. You picked Perez, I picked Max.

[QUOTE=Ximian;27361662]Sainz and Ricciardo were racing against a 12 year old Verstappen, so that's not a fair comparison.[/QUOTE
We didnt make the comparison...and Sainz was just as young and inexperienced. |

Saying he was young and inexperienced is yet another excuse. Seems Hamilton didn’t have those “problems” in his first few years at McLaren...bested at 2-time WDC in his first year in the same car and finished 2nd in the drivers championship

In my opinion, Jos "The Boss of Nothing" Verstappen raised a Jarno Trulli. |
